When assessing an 80-year-old patient in shock, it is important to remember that they may not show typical signs of shock due to age-related changes in physiology. Monitor vital signs closely and consider their baseline function to identify signs of shock. Prompt treatment and early intervention are crucial in this vulnerable population.

Blood pressure drop, breathing difficult
If no shock indicated, check for signs of life; and if none continue CPR until the AED analysis's again.
All of the following conditions would make you suspect shock except for stable vital signs. Shock typically presents with indicators such as hypotension, tachycardia, altered mental status, and cool, clammy skin. If a patient exhibits normal blood pressure and heart rate, it is less likely that they are experiencing shock. Therefore, stable vital signs would not raise suspicion of shock.
